Date: 4 Nov 1995 12:29:34 GMT Organization: San Francisco State University Lines: 18 Message-ID: <47fmbe$t4@news.csus.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: wleong@orion.sfsu.edu X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] I thought I had the installation going after screwing up the whole c drive. Now, I can get to commit part, but somewhere in the middle of the commit, I got an error saying "boot image not found, try to locate from floppy drive." What is my problem now? I tried to do rawrite a boot.flp to a diskette and I still have the same problem. Also, after I had re-partition the hard disk for several times, the fips now telling me that "partition table corrupted" snd exit with error. I just have one question here, after we partition the hard disk, are we suppose to format it before we do a dos-installation? I'll be very grateful for your input. -- ==================================================================== "Grosch's law Computing power increases as the square of the cost." --Grosch
